Discover Raton RV rentals for memorable road trips
The small town of Raton, New Mexico is found around halfway between Pueblo in Colorado, and Santa Fe, the capital of New Mexico. No one is quite sure where the name Raton came from, only that it means "mouse" in Spanish. The area Raton inhabits was first explored by Spanish explorers several hundred years ago, although there was no actual townsite in Raton until 1877. The first name for Ration was Willow Springs when it first began as a small stop on the Santa Fe Trail, before changing its name to Otero, and finally, Raton.
